This 20 MINUTE ONE-POT SCALLION NOODLE SOUP is an easy noodle meal with a tasty pork topping in a rich, peanut butter scallion soup that will have you slurping away in 20 minutes. It is basically an amalgamation of my dad’s scallion soup noodles and Dan Dan Mein. Or, two of my favourite noodle dishes in one!

Thin, crunchy chocolate enveloping a creamy centre with pops of juicy blueberries, these BLUEBERRY YOGURT CLUSTERS have been going viral recently! I added my own spin to it by adding tahini, maple syrup and cinnamon to the yogurt mixture which add really nice flavour dimensions.
Read moreChilled Noodles with Spicy Peanut Sauce
This recipe for CHILLED NOODLES WITH SPICY PEANUT SAUCE is a refreshing and delicious recipe featuring bouncy noodles loaded with a variety of crisp veggies and shredded chicken all tossed in a Chinese-style creamy, savoury, spicy and tangy peanut butter sauce. I think of this as the Chinese version of pasta salad! Perfect on warm days as a standalone meal or as a side dish for bbq parties. Great in a packed lunch or as a potluck offering since it keeps and transports so well.
Read moreTahini Cake with Berries { gluten-free }
I’ve baked enough gluten-free cakes to confidently say that despite its bad rap, gluten-free cakes need not to be dry or dense or sandy in texture. They can be moist, light and often times in my opinion, more flavourful than wheat flour cakes depending on the ingredients used. In this case, I use a mix of almond flour (see - flavour boost right there) and gluten-free flour blend. Egg yolks provide richness and egg whites (whipped) provide airiness to lighten the denser nature of gluten-free flours.

With the start of school and adieu to summer vacation, I begin to accept that Fall is just around the corner. Every year when I spot the first copper-y dried leaf fallen on the sidewalk, I think of (lower your device's volume if you're at work haha) this old KFC commercial where the woman is screaming and pointing at something. The camera then turns to the sidewalk in front of her, showing a single fallen maple leaf on the ground with the voice-over saying "summer can't last forever". She then bolts in the other direction. I feel exactly the same way! Does anyone else (Canadian) remember this one? Best. Commercial. Ever. My favorite. :)
